➡ The David Knight Showarticle discusses the ongoing energy crisis and geopolitical tensions between Russia, Ukraine, and the U.S. Russia has cut off gas supplies to Austria due to a financial dispute, causing European gas prices to rise. The article also mentions the U.S.’s dependency on Russia for uranium, which is crucial for the country’s electricity supply and AI development. Lastly, it touches on the U.S.’s domestic politics, including a proposed bill to label criticism of Israel as hate speech.

➡ The Anti-Semitism Awareness Act, which aims to define anti-Semitism and increase action against it on campuses, is causing controversy. Critics argue it infringes on the First Amendment, limiting free speech. Supporters believe it’s necessary to combat hate speech and discrimination. The debate continues, with some politicians opposing the bill due to concerns about its potential impact on freedom of speech and its vague definition of anti-Semitism.

➡ The text discusses how both conservatives and liberals are seen to limit free speech, with conservatives allegedly labeling critics of Israel as terrorists and liberals potentially criminalizing criticism of certain topics. It suggests that these groups aim to control and manipulate the public, using tactics like isolation and deception. The text encourages individuals to recognize their worth and resist these manipulations, urging them to share information and support the David Knight Show.

Work can take a lot of different forms, can it? It usually begins with, you know, sanctions and some other things like that. And that’s really kind of what’s happening with Ukraine. As Ukraine is heating up, Austria is going to get colder. Gas prom has just cut gas off to Austria just before the winter, right? Starting November 16, Austria is off the list for Russian natural gas following a spat over 242 million dollars. That’s an arbitration spat between the two of them. They don’t mention what the nature of the spat is, but the Austrian company OMV refused to pay while they have this arbitration spat going.

And so Russia says, well, no pay, no gas. European gas prices didn’t take the news well. Futures climbed nearly 3 percent. Europe’s gas supply has been teetering on a nice edge since 2022 energy crisis. With any whiff of trouble, sending the markets into a frenzy. And of course, this is all by design, folks. You know, we look at pipelines. I pointed out the issue with the Syrian war. A lot of that had to do with a pipeline and the fact that America wanted them, you know, pipeline coming from one source that was allied with them versus the Russians who wanted different pipeline run across Syria.

And since the Russians had influence with Syria, well, we had a war over that. And of course, when you look at this war, the Nord Stream pipelines were a massive part of this. The U S has been angling. That’s a key part of this. Look, it’s not just the geopolitics and yes, it’s like us versus Russia, but it’s also about the money I played for you a couple of weeks ago. Lindsey Graham saying, well, you know, they got, and I forget what it was, $15 trillion worth of assets in Ukraine. We can’t let the Russians have those assets, you know, that type of thing, rich man’s war, poor man’s fight.

There’s always a financial aspect to all of these wars. Somebody wants natural resources. Everybody thinks that it’s about the flag and the colors and the, you know, no, it’s about the money that’s behind it. That’s why they get you fighting the wars for them. And so when you look at Nord Stream, the U S wanted to shut down that massive pipeline coming from Russia into Europe. And so they blew them up and they convinced the German government to, you know, uh, they’d already opened up Nord Stream one Nord Stream two was about to come online.

The German government shut it down and said, you’re not going to let, we’re not going to let any gas come in. And then lo and behold, both of them get blown up to make sure that’s not going to change because there was already a huge amount of political pressure in Germany saying, what are you crazy? You know, we need to have that oil, that gas at that price. And AFD was increasing in popularity because of that. So yeah, energy, whether it is oil, whether it is gas, a key component of all of these wars.

Uh, so, um, this is just another, another aspect of it. Uh, but of course, Western media will portray this as a hundred percent Russia, right? And this is competition between Russia and the U S over the energy issues. Um, Russia hit Ukraine energy sites, their energy infrastructure with 120 missiles and 90 drones and large attack on Sunday. Uh, the massive combined air attack marked one of the largest of the war thus far killed and wounded several people. They said two people were killed, six others injured, including two children. That’s nothing compared to the ongoing continuing attacks in Gaza.

Uh, and we’ll get to that in a moment here, but right now we’re talking about Ukraine. Uh, they, uh, destroyed or attacks signa seriously damaged, uh, Ukrainian thermal power plant. Uh, but it was also targeting a lot of other things, infrastructure as well as military targets. Russia’s armed forces group inflicted damage on infrastructure, military airfields, gas production and energy facilities used for the operation of Ukraine’s defense enterprises. A depot of drones was attacked as well as, uh, troops and military equipment and 144 different regions. Well, the, um, what is happening with the United States? Russia is cutting off the gas.

And of course it’s not simply a, uh, a naked political move. There is also a disagreement between, uh, Austria and Russia over some contracts that they had or something like that. But look at what Russia is doing with the U S right. Um, we operate with sanctions. Well, they’re about to sanction us on uranium. Did you realize as they are making this move to artificial intelligence that we don’t have enough uranium to do that. Do we are dependent on Russia for uranium? We got to get our electric batteries and manufactured goods from China.

We got to get our raw materials of uranium from Russia. We don’t have enough. And now Russia has put sanctions on exports of enriched uranium to the U S Russia’s temporal temporarily, they say, but they haven’t said how long it’s going to be. But they’re restricting uranium exports to the U S the U S, um, um, produces, says, uh, raising supply concerns for reactors that produced nearly 20% of the nation’s electricity. And so, um, it’s right now nuclear is 20%, but with all the AI stuff, it’s going to go up. Not that we’re going to get any of that, but it’s just that they, um, by attaching it to AI, they’re attaching it to a military strategic resource.

Really Russia provide no details or timelines for the uranium export restrictions. Russia continues leveraging energy as a geopolitical tool. As of course the U S did with Nord stream Bloomberg said Russia’s move targets a key U S vulnerability in the nuclear fuel cycle, as it controls nearly one half of global uranium enrichment capacity and supplied over a quarter of U S enriched fuel last year. Okay. So, um, the nuclear industry is a fifth of the, uh, nation’s electricity supply and a quarter of its fuel comes from Russia. Um, so that’s a lot of leverage and we’re about to give it even more leverage.

Maybe we should think about coal. You know, we have more coal than Saudi Arabia has oil. Oh no, we’re not allowed to have that because the UN says so. And because people like Doug Burgum say so, and because people all around Trump say so the head nuclear analyst for Bloomberg said, well, we don’t have enough enriched uranium here. They should have been stockpiling enriched uranium in anticipation of this happening. Never thought about that. When we put sanctions on Russia and, uh, pushed for a war with Russia, it didn’t think about the fact that we get our energy from them.

Well, we thought it was just about gas. Didn’t expect them to move to a nuclear. What a surprise. A prolonged ban could affect, affect reactor operators by next year, leaving some without any alternative suppliers. Again, is this another bargaining chip for why Putin is doing it? Are they the ones playing chess this time? You know, all of this increase in the war that is happening, the war activity, as I said, it happened right after the election and it’s about moving the line of contact because they expect that there’s going to be a peace proposal.

And I think the Putin really wants to, to terminate this, but I think it was a terminated and more favorable line of contact. So they’re trying to move the lines further into Ukraine or whatever and vice versa. And so I think this is another bargaining tool here. The us needs Russian uranium. They have half of the world’s supply and it is a quarter of what we use. The Biden administration launched a multi-billion dollar initiative to revive domestic uranium enrichment. But guess what? Progress is limited. Oh, you mean like the fact that we spent $8 billion for charging infrastructure for cars and we built what was it, seven stations or something? Yeah.

So, so that’s not really going anywhere either. Meanwhile, we talked about the other war. Chuck Schumer is moving to silence criticism of Israel as hate speech with the anti-Semitism awareness act. And I guess this begs the question, why does Israel hate free speech in America so much? When you’re at war, you typically will censor, you know, free speech is usually first casualty of war, the truth. And so countries will censor that in their own country. It just shows how much control they have over the US. And maybe, you know, this is happening here because they are the government here.

Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer is trying to ram through the anti-Semitism awareness act to silence criticism of Israel as hate speech and to empower the federal government to crack down an anti-Israel protest. Schumer is attempting to pass the bill by adding it to the NDAA, a must pass thing. Now he’s getting opposition from Mike Johnson. I thought, Mike Johnson is opposing this, but Mike Johnson is Israel first too. Why would he oppose this? Well, he’s opposing it, even though it was already passed in the house. Mike Johnson doesn’t want to add it.

The only thing he’s concerned about, he doesn’t want to add it to the defense authorization act. He wants it as a standalone thing, presumably so that he can virtue signal about it. I guess, right? They’re very past the standalone version of this. And he wants all the credit for that, I guess, is what’s going on. Either way, both of them want to eviscerate the first amendment on the orders of a foreign government. I have absolutely no patience for this stuff. To me, that was a disqualification for DeSantis from running. The fact that he would put that in, make speech crimes, an actual crime that you could be locked up for even, and that he would go to Israel to sign that bill.

It disgusts me, disgusts me about that political entity we call Israel and disgusts me about this political entity we call Republicans as well. Schumer wants to avoid a vote of accountability, said Mike Johnson. So that’s what I said. Mike Johnson wants credit for this from his foreign masters. The House passed the Anti-Semitism Awareness Act more than six months ago, he said. Leader Schumer should simply put the anti-Semitism bill on the Senate floor without delay and give senators a chance to debate this very important issue and to pass this bill on its own.

We already knew that these people hate the first amendment. Now, the interesting thing is that when this is being rammed down everybody’s throats by Mike Johnson, Matt Gaetz said, this evening I will vote against the ridiculous hate speech bill called the Anti-Semitism Awareness Act. Now, this is one of the reasons why I think Trump is putting Matt Gaetz in for Attorney General. He may very well not win, and I think that he probably won’t because in the Senate, confirmation can be blocked by using the filibuster, which means that you’ve got to have 60 votes and if you’ve got somebody that’s controversial, they’re probably not going to make that.

And I’m not saying anything at all about, you know, the accusations against Matt Gaetz. Again, he’s not guilty, but he’s not innocent either, right? He’s not found guilty in the legal system, but I don’t think that he was innocent either. But still, his problem is that he came out against Israel. His problem is not as young girlfriends. His problem is that he came out against Israel, and for that they’ll shut him down. He said, I will vote against this Anti-Semitism Awareness Act. He said anti-Semitism is wrong, but this legislation is written without regard to the meaning of the words.

And he says, and he highlighted it, the gospel itself would meet the definition of anti-Semitism under the terms of this bill. The bill says the definition of anti-Semitism includes contemporary examples of anti-Semitism, quote unquote, identified by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. And I talked about this at the time. I said, so we’re going to, we’re going to let an organization, an independent organization, the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance is going to eviscerate our First Amendment, and these people are going to vote for people like Mike Johnson. So I said, I’m not.

And I said at the time, I said, all the Republican delegation voted for this, and I’m not voting, wouldn’t vote for any of these people in Tennessee. He said, one of those examples includes, quote, claims of Jews killing Jesus. He said, the Bible is clear. There’s no myth or controversy on this. Therefore, I will not support this bill. And of course, the Jews killed him. The Romans killed him. And he died for you and I, right? Think about it, right? You see that hammer in your hand, putting the nails on because he saw what you were going to do and he died for what you were going to do before you did it.

But that’s the full picture. But you know, we’re not going to talk, not allowed to talk about even that. This bill and says to provide for the consideration of a definition of anti-Semitism for the enforcement of federal anti-discrimination laws concerning education programs or activities and for other purposes and includes contemporary examples of anti-Semitism that were identified by this international Holocaust organization. And then they have working definitions of anti-Semitism. Claims that Jews killed Jesus. Thomas Massey also opposed this unconstitutional bill. He called it that. And it absolutely is. It’s as anti-free speech as you can get.

He said, today, the house will vote on a bill to define anti-Semitism with an intent to increase persecutions of activity on campuses. The bill has a problem beyond violating the First Amendment. The definition of anti-Semitism appears nowhere in the bill. Oh, wow. Okay. So it’s a ministry of truth time, right? Yeah. Do you agree with all these examples of anti-Semitism, he said, and he posted them, you know, things like calling for or aiding or justifying the killing of Jews and the name of a radical ideology. Well, why isn’t just calling for killing people? Isn’t that enough, right? And that’s the way it is with most of this hate crime stuff.

Is this actually a crime? It is already, there’s already laws against that. But then it goes further. It says, making mendacious, dehumanizing, demonizing, or stereotypical allegations about Jews as such, or about the power of Jews as a collective. Again, why should anybody’s speech right or wrong be punished as a crime? You either tolerate wrongthink or you become wrongthink. You become a tyrant, denying rather the fact, the scope, the mechanisms of the Holocaust, for example. You know, there’s been a lot of Jews like Noam Chomsky and others back in the day when the left, the radical left were radical supporters of the first amendment.

People like Noam Chomsky said, hey, he’s Jewish. He says, I’ll argue with these people who say that there wasn’t any Holocaust. That’s the way it ought to be. If you’re going to shut down any discussion of something, we all know where that ends. And we have seen it applied to everything in the last few years. Even something about accusing Jewish citizens of being more loyal to Israel. You don’t think that a Jewish citizen could be more loyal to Israel than to America? That’s not a possibility. We can’t even talk about that. I said when Dr.

Oz was running, I said, this guy, he’s more loyal to Turkey than he is to the United States. Why doesn’t that bother Trump? This is a guy who served in the Turkish army, not in the US army. This is a guy who has dual citizenship in Turkey. And Dr. Oz said, I’m not going to give up my citizenship in Turkey unless you elect me to Senate first. Oh, then I will give up my Turkish citizenship. Why? So that he can get access to top secret documents as a Senator, which presumably he could pass on to Turkey.

Well, I guess I could say that about him, but I couldn’t say the same thing about so many others who are in exactly the same situation, except it’s about Israel instead of Turkey. Can’t say that. Sorry. Information liberation says anyone supporting this attack on our first amendment is an enemy of free speech who thinks that protecting Jewish feelings should take precedence over our Bill of Rights. And of course that applies to all this stuff that applies to the alphabet monopoly and the people that you’re not allowed to, uh, offend their feelings.

But you know, truth is, they tell us how important truth is, but they don’t believe it themselves. Remember the NPR CEO, I think our reverence for the truth might become, might have become a bit of a distraction that is preventing us from finding consensus and getting important things done. Yeah. Okay. So it’s about getting their things done and the truth is just, if it’s in the way, we can throw it out ourselves and take a look at, it’s not just Mike Johnson. It’s not just the majority of the Republicans. It’s not just DeSantis and the Republican majority in Florida.

It’s also the heritage foundation, the biggest conservative think tank. And I know heritage foundation doesn’t care about free speech at all. August 6th when info wars was taken off of all the social media, it was only a couple of weeks after that, that Trump, the only thing Trump did to support the first amendment was to have a Rose Garden party where he invited some organizations and he invited the Cato Institute, Liberty, the biggest libertarian think tank, and he invited heritage foundation, the biggest conservative think tank, much bigger than Cato Institute.

He invited them and they were saying, well, you know, corporations can do whatever they want. If a corporation wants to destroy the first amendment, it can. And now heritage foundation is saying, well, if Israel wants to destroy the first amendment, Israel can too. Right? So corporations, that’s fine. They’ve got their own special rights and evidently foreign countries have got their own special rights as well. We talk about bringing in, you know, opening the borders and letting foreign citizens come in and the Democrats want them to vote. What about Israel? How do they get the right to not only vote, but the right to suspend our constitution and destroy the first amendment.

But the heritage foundation has got this thing they call project Esther. Folks, you are here for such a time as this. You’re here to protect the first amendment and not to just look the other way because it’s being done by Republicans and Trump. Uh, so they said, this is part, they said, and what they do is they say that anybody that criticizes Israel as part of the global Hamas support network. And they got an acronym for it H S N N right? So if you support the first amendment, then you are now a terrorist as George W.

Bush said, well, you’re either with us or you’re with a terrorist, you’re evil. And that’s what we’re talking about. Look, you’re a terrorist. If you speak against Israel, according to the conservatives, according to the Republicans, according to the heritage foundation. And, um, and isn’t it interesting? They want to put in more stringent punishment against you for speaking against political Israel than they do for criticizing your own government. And we know that they do come after and politically persecute people who criticize their own government. Just take a look at January the sixth, but now they want to do that for people criticizing a foreign government.

And then on the other side, we’ve got the liberals who now we don’t have people like, you know, any, any old style liberals like Noam Chomsky know the liberals today when I attack free speech, if you criticize a pandemic, if you criticize the climate narrative, McGuffin, if you criticize vaccines, if you criticize their pronouns, right? So you got that, this long list of things that the left wants to criminalize. And, uh, but the right is going to be the ones that are going to, I mean, would, do you think that the public would stand for it if they made a crime so they could lock you up if you don’t use somebody’s pronouns, but they’re going to stand aside and let the Republicans do this to protect a foreign government from criticism when it’s involved in a war that deserves criticism.

The common man. They created common core to dumb down our children. They created common past to track and control us their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary, but each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It’s time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
